\"\"<\/a>The Web Marketing Association is looking for the best non-profit and advocacy Websites in the world as part of their 24th annual international WebAward Competition for Web site development at www.webaward.org<\/a>. The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that sets benchmarks for 96 industries, including advocacy, arts and non-profit websites, based on the seven criteria of a successful web site. The deadline for public interest websites to enter is May 29, 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdvocacy and non-profit websites are very competitive when it comes to Web development and organizations can benefit from the independent evaluation of their online efforts,\u201d said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association.\u00a0 \u201cAdvocacy sites tend to be very good a pulling at the heart strings to sway visitors to their particular point of view. Strong writing and good use of images make many of these sites successful. Sites entered into the non-profit category also benefit from a reduced entry fee which is our way of recognizing the budget constraints at many of these organizations. \u201d<\/p>\n

There is also a reduced entry fee for sites entering the Non-profit industry category.<\/p>\n

Web sites are judged on seven criteria including design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity, copy writing and ease of use. Each WebAward entry is judged against other entries in its industry category and then against an overall standard of excellence.<\/p>\n

All entrants benefit from receiving valuable feedback in terms of their specific scores compared against the average scores for their industry. They also may receive specific comments from the WebAward\u2019s professional judging panel on their Web site development efforts.<\/p>\n

Winners of a WebAward in the public interest categories will also receive:<\/p>\n
